(8) Equity valuations have been calculated in accordance with the requirements for Compensation Actually Paid. Adjustments for restricted stock units (“RSUs”) reflect changes in fair value during the fiscal year based on the Company’s closing stock price at fiscal year-end or the applicable vesting date. RSU awards generally vest pro-rata over three years. Adjustments for performance stock units (“PSUs”) reflect changes in fair value during the fiscal year based on the Company’s closing stock price at fiscal year-end and management’s estimate of expected performance. For PSUs with market-based conditions, fair value is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model as described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. PSU awards have a maximum payout opportunity of 200% of target. See the Compensation Discussion and Analysis for additional information.
(9) The Company’s pension benefits are determined under its qualified defined benefit plan. The total pension expense for each year includes (i) the service cost for benefits earned during the year and (ii) any prior service cost arising from plan amendments, if applicable, which was $0 for all years presented. All amounts are calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Compensation Actually Paid Versus Company Performance
Executive compensation is linked strongly to the financial and operational performance of the Company, with a majority of annual target compensation being variable and at-risk. In 2025, 89.0% of the total target compensation for the principal Executive Officer (PEO) and 79.6% of non-PEO NEO pay, on average, was at-risk and tied to performance measures that impact stockholder return, including Free Cash Flow. The following charts provide a clear visual description of the relationship between Compensation Actually Paid and Newmont Total Shareholder Return, Peer/Index Total Shareholder Return, Newmont Free Cash Flow, and Newmont Net Income as detailed in the Pay Versus Performance table above.
